Centre for Care Researchers (12 posts available)
Closing dates for all posts are currently 28th February 2022
The Centre for Care is a new research centre established following a highly competitive process run by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC). Based at the University of Sheffield, the Centre for Care has been awarded over £10 million for its initial five years to address the urgent need in the UK for new and accessible evidence on care. The Centre’s focus includes experiences of providing and receiving care across the life course; the networks, communities and systems that affect people who need care and support; the causes and consequences of inequalities in care; and the workforce changes needed to secure quality care for the future.
We invite candidates with a demonstrable interest in understanding and researching social care to apply for our 12 new researcher posts, based at the Universities of Sheffield (six posts), Birmingham (three posts), Oxford and Kent and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (all with one post each). All posts are for a 3 year period. Appointees will spend 1 day a week on Centre-wide and impact wide activities, and the remainder of their time working within their research team.
Researchers will be active members of the ESRC Centre for Care, attending and contributing to Centre activities (such as theory building workshops, capacity building events, co-production and user voice forums) and to relevant team meetings. They will collaborate with colleagues, including those in partner universities and with social care, voluntary sector and industrial partners. The Centre has a commitment to working co-productively with non-academic stakeholders including people with lived experience of social care, and to building impactful research.
Our 12 new roles
The roles are located in six research teams, across the five Universities. Interested applicants should apply directly to the appropriate institution. Links to all vacancies are available here: http://circle.group.shef.ac.uk/centre-for-care-vacancies/
